Take CHARGE of Education

HELP US HELP
OUR SCHOOL.
Did you know there’s an easy way to help us raise money for our school — for books,
band uniforms, reading programs and anything else that can use extra funding?
It’s called Take Charge of Education, and it’s helping our school right now.
Here’s how it works: Visit Target.com/tcoe or call 1-800-316-6142 to designate our
school, then use your REDcard whenever you shop. When you use your REDcardSM
(Target® Visa® Credit Card, Target Credit Card® or Target Check Card®), Target will
donate up to 1% of your purchases to the eligible K–12 school of your choice.*
Don’t have a REDcard? It’s easy to apply. Get started in person at any Target store or
go to Target.com/redcard.
Grandparents, alumni, friends and neighbors are all welcome to participate in the
program. The more people we involve, the harder the program works for our school.
If you’re already participating, thank you! Check out our school’s progress anytime
at Target.com/tcoe.
*Subject to Take Charge of Education program rules. Target donates an amount equal to 1% of Target Visa Credit Card, Target Credit Card
and Target Check Card purchases you make at Target and Target.com, and ½% of Target Visa Credit Card purchases you make everywhere
else Visa credit cards are accepted, to the eligible K–12 school of your choice. See Target.com/tcoe or call 1-800-316-6142 for details.

HOW IT WORKS
You can designate your school at Target.com/tcoe. Every time you use your REDcardSM (Target® Visa® Credit Card, Target Credit
Card® or Target Check Card®) at Target or Target.com, Target will donate 1% of your purchases to the eligible K–12 school of
your choice.* When you use your Target Visa Credit Card everywhere else Visa credit cards are accepted, your school will
receive ½% of your purchases.
Funds can be used for anything your school needs, from reading programs to band uniforms. Target pays out donations
directly to the school principal once a year during the month of September.
HOW IT ADDS UP
Your school’s progress is detailed online, just like the example below. Visit Target.com/tcoe and enter your school’s name and
state to see:
• Your school’s last payout from the program
• The amount your school has received from Target to date (since 1997)
• Your school’s progress toward the next payout, updated daily
• How many people have enrolled in the program and designated your school

school and using their REDcards.
